BSB (Formerly Known As "Brooklyn Sneaker Box") GOES IN like Michael Phelps hittin' a bong after swimming a medal winning relay. While the New York Yankees were getting smashed 22-4 in their new multi-million dollar stadium by the Cleveland Indians (real talk, no joke), BSB came out the gate swinging for the fences in their Grand Opening event.

It's been a long time since I've witnessed a store with such diversity in product from old to new, with quite a few pieces of noteworthy iconic pieces sprinkled throughout the store (including a vintage "Street Fighter 2" arcade game up in the spot). My Blackberry Storm was begging me to stop and go get a real camera...but I couldn't. There was just too much good stuff I had to capture as it caught my eyes. Peep the pictures, and if you're in Brooklyn... you need to hit up BSB! Special shout to the homie Skram! We at OSD wish you the best of Everything!

The Peeps (Top to Bottom): Mel (FluD Watches), Dee (BSB Co-Owner), Will Eddins (Center) of Karmaloop.com and his peeps, BSB Co-Owner Skram (1st as the Tourist, and 2nd the sneakerhead "Literally")...

Shoppers were in the place to be! One shopper bought a pair of Nike Pushead SBs for a pretty penny on this sunny Brooklyn afternoon...Recession huh? Don't tell the kid who dropped 3 C-Notes...

Iconic items were all over the place in BSB. Word is Dee (BSB Co-Owner) is the current Street Fighter 2 champ...

WHO REMEMBERS THIS FEATURE ARTICLE FROM SPORTS ILLUSTRATED? THIS IS PART OF THE REASON JORDAN RELEASES ARE NOW ON "SATURDAYS". PROPS TO BSB FOR HAVING THIS LAYING AROUND. YOU GUYS BETTER PUT THAT IN SOME PLASTIC!

Now to the kicks... Like I said before, BSB is swinging for the fences! Here are some of the kicks on their Jordan Wall...

Here is some of the diversity that BSB has on display for customers of varying footwear tastes (Some Air Forces, a few Nike SB Dunks, a little bit of Asics, a touch New Balance, a splash of Prada, and Supra is in the building as well)...

And now on to the BSB Fitted Hat section

Some of the dope T-Shirts that BSB put up right on time for the Summer of 09...
